Question Can you change the position of the alarm message banner?
Answer Not currently, as of version 2.51 it will be at the bottom of the screen.
Alarms are unique in that they display on any displayed screen.

If you need customized alarm messages (position etc), you could make a background screen with a lookup text object or add the object to all screens that would need this.
You would need to address multiple alarms with PLC logic to select the messages one at a time etc. The Alarms in the panel handle this sequencing for you.
